What engine is used in the Audi Q3?
2 Answers
The Audi Q3 offers three four-cylinder engine options: 1. The standard gasoline model is equipped with a 170-horsepower 2.0TFSI engine; 2. The top-tier Q3 model features the 211-horsepower 2.0TFSI engine, also found in the Q5; 3. The 2.0TDI diesel engine delivers a maximum power of 140 horsepower. Audi Q3 specifications: 1. The Audi Q3 measures 4385mm in length, 1831mm in width, and 1608mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2603mm; 2. Chassis system: The Audi Q3 shares the same platform design as the Volkswagen Tiguan and, like the Tiguan, employs a four-link rear suspension; 3. Exterior: From the side profile, the Audi Q3 largely inherits the Q-series styling, with the most notable difference being the roof. The rear lines slope slightly downward, tapering at the D-pillar to create a coupe-like silhouette. At the rear, the LED taillights adopt a sharper triangular design, and the combined lighting effects are equally impressive.
I've been driving the Q3 for three years, and the engine options are quite detailed. The older imported version came with a 2.0T turbocharged EA888 Gen 2 engine, featuring a cast iron block that's incredibly sturdy—just a stage 1 tune can squeeze out an extra 70-80 horsepower. After the 2019 domestic facelift, it switched to three variants of the Gen 3 EA888: 1.4T and two 2.0T versions (high and low power). The 35TFSI model, in particular, delivers a city fuel consumption of around 7.5L/100km and feels especially nimble from a standstill at traffic lights. For more power, the 45TFSI 2.0T high-output version with 220 horsepower and quattro all-wheel drive offers exceptional stability on rainy mountain roads. The hybrid version launched last year pairs a 1.5T engine with an electric motor for smoother acceleration, though the trunk space is a bit smaller.
